Remember how the New Xbox Experience completely changed the Xbox 360 dashboard back in 2008? Well Microsoft is going to be doing that once again this fall. During its E3 2011 press conference, Microsoft revealed a new feature that will make searching for content on Xbox Live a lot easier. The New Xbox Experience is also going to require Kinect if you want to get the most out of it.

The “destination” will basically become a central hub for all things Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix, including trailers, basic and premium themes, picture packs, etc. Interestingly, the premium themes will be featured in…

Microsoft is clearly doing whatever they can to make sure that gamers have the opportunity to witness their New Xbox Experience.

The company has announced that it will be conducting a sweepstakes that will reward prospective winners with Microsoft Points that can be used towards Xbox Live Marketplace purchases. The grand prize winner will obtain 500,000 points (US$6,247.50 value).

That amounts to having enough to purchase more than half the Xbox Live Arcade library and more than enough to attain every song from both the Rock Band and Guitar Hero series of games and still…

With the New Xbox Experience (NXE) just over two weeks away from a worldwide launch on November 19, 2008, Microsoft has prepared a selection of Developer Diaries to bring you to up to speed on what you can expect to find tucked away in the mandatory system update.
